The relation between critical exponents, characterizing a continuous phase transition, and the fractal structure of physical lines, proliferating at the critical point, is established by considering the two-dimensional O($N$) spin model for…
In critical percolation models, in a large cube there will typically be more than one cluster of comparable diameter. In 2D, the probability of $k>>1$ spanning clusters is of the order $e^{-\alpha k^{2}}$. In dimensions d>6, when $\eta = 0$…
This work provides an extension of parts of the classical finite dimensional sub-elliptic theory in the context of infinite dimensional compact connected metrizable groups. Given a well understood and well behaved bi-invariant Laplacian,…
The thesis deals with recognizing diffeomorphisms from fractal properties of discrete orbits, generated by iterations of such diffeomorphisms. The notion of fractal properties of a set refers to the box dimension, the Minkowski content and…
We describe singular diffusion in bounded subsets $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ by form methods and characterize the associated operator. We also prove positivity and contractivity of the corresponding semigroup. This results in a description…

We investigate the geometry of a critical system undergoing a second order thermal phase transition. Using a local description for the dynamics characterizing the system at the critical point T=Tc, we reveal the formation of clusters with…
This thesis is about local and non-local Dirichlet forms on the Sierpi\'nski gasket and the Sierpi\'nski carpet. We are concerned with the following three problems in analysis on the Sierpi\'nski gasket and the Sierpi\'nski carpet. First, a…
For a large class of repulsive interaction models, the Mayer cluster integrals can be transformed into a tridiagonal real symmetric matrix $R_{mn}$, whose elements converge to two constants. This allows for an effective extrapolation of the…
The critical properties of the single-crystalline semiconducting ferromagnet CrGeTe$_3$ were investigated by bulk dc magnetization around the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic phase transition. Critical exponents $\beta = 0.200\pm0.003$ with…
Let $\Sigma$ be a compact surface with boundary. For a given conformal class $c$ on $\Sigma$ the functional $\sigma_k^*(\Sigma,c)$ is defined as the supremum of the $k-$th normalized Steklov eigenvalue over all metrics on $c$. We consider…
Recently, Dinew and Popovici introduced and studied an energy functional $F$ acting on the metrics in the Aeppli cohomology class of a Hermitian-symplectic metric and showed that in dimension 3 its critical points (if any) are K\"ahler. In…
We consider (locally) energy finite coordinates associated with a strongly local regular Dirichlet form on a metric measure space. We give coordinate formulas for substitutes of tangent spaces, for gradient and divergence operators and for…
I study the properties of the quantum critical point of the transverse-field quantum Ising model on various fractal lattices such as the Sierpi\'nski carpet, Sierpi\'nski gasket, and Sierpi\'nski tetrahedron. Using a continuous-time quantum…
We investigate the universality class of the finite-temperature phase transition of the two-dimensional Ising model with the algebraically decaying ferromagnetic long-range interaction, $J_{ij} = |\vec{r}_i -\vec{r}_j|^{-(d+\sigma)}$, where…
The depinning transition of elastic interfaces with an elastic interaction kernel decaying as $1/r^{d+\sigma}$ is characterized by critical exponents which continuously vary with $\sigma$. These exponents are expected to be unique and…

The critical properties displayed by an ideal 2D Bose gas trapped in a harmonic potential are determined and characterized in an exact numerical fashion. Beyond thermodynamics, addressed in terms of the global pressure and volume which are…
We study the Sobolev spaces $H^\sigma(K)$ and $H^\sigma_0(K)$ on p.c.f. self-similar sets in terms of the boundary behavior of functions. First, for $\sigma\in \mathbb{R}^+$, we make an exact description of the tangents of functions in…
We introduce the concept of index for regular Dirichlet forms by means of energy measures, and discuss its properties. In particular, it is proved that the index of strong local regular Dirichlet forms is identical with the martingale…
